• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GLE_MCA590 - A test run has no accounting documents ?

  The SAP error message GLE_MCA590, which states "A test run has no accounting documents," typically occurs during the execution of a test run for a financial transaction or process, such as a closing operation or a posting run. This message indicates that the system did not generate any accounting documents during the test run, which can be due to several reasons.
  Causes:
  
  
  No Relevant Data: There may be no data available for the test run that meets the selection criteria. For example, if you are trying to run a closing operation but there are no transactions to process, the system will not generate any accounting documents.
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The parameters or selection criteria used for the test run may be too restrictive, leading to no data being selected for processing.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the financial module that prevent the generation of accounting documents.
  
  
  Posting Period Issues: The posting period may be closed or not open for the transactions you are trying to process.
  
  
  Test Run Settings: The test run may be set up incorrectly, or the system may be configured to skip certain types of transactions.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Data Availability: Ensure that there are transactions available for the test run. You can do this by reviewing the relevant documents or entries in the system.
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Re-evaluate the selection criteria used for the test run. Make sure they are broad enough to include relevant transactions.
  
  
  Configuration Review: Check the configuration settings in the financial module to ensure that everything is set up correctly for the type of transaction you are trying to process.
  
  
  Posting Period Check: Verify that the posting period is open for the transactions you are trying to process. If it is closed, you may need to open it or adjust your test run accordingly.
  
  
  Run in Production Mode: If you are confident that there are transactions to process, consider running the operation in production mode instead of test mode to see if accounting documents are generated.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help resources for specific details related to the transaction you are trying to execute.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Depending on the context, you may be using transaction codes like F.01 (Financial Statement), F.07 (Closing Operations), or others related to financial postings.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
